QuestionAnswer
Anaphase Sister Chromatid are separated, Motor protein in kinetochores pull sister chromatids apart using microtubules, separated chromosomes are rapidly pulled to opposite side of cell
Cell Cycle Life of a cell from when it is formed, its growth, normal function, and when it divides again
Cell Cycle Checkpoint G1 (interphase) - Check DNA is intact, G2 (interphase) - DNA been properly replicated, M (metaphase)
Cell Plate A new wall form across the middle to make 2 new cells (plant)
Centromere Where sister chromatids attach (during prometaphase)
Chromatid One half of a duplicated chromosome (sister chromatids)
Cleavage Furrow The equator of the cell is pulled inward (animal cell)
Cytokinesis Cytoplasmic separation, the rest of the cells content are divided into 2 new cells
Diploid A cell that has homologous pairs (two)
G2 Phase More cell growth, preparation for cell division --> organelles duplicated, cytoskeleton dismantled, energy stores replenished, protein for division are made
G1
G0 Cells can exit the cell cycle, where it is alive but not divide, can re-enter and divide, some cells does tend to stay and won't divide
Gamete Sperm/egg cells
Gene segments of chromosome that carry instruction for making a specific protein
Genome complete set of genetic material within a cell
Haploid A cell that has one chromosome of each type (no homologous pair)
Histone Packaging DNA into chromatin and regulating gene expression during the S phase when DNA replication occurs
Homologous chromosome pairs of chromosomes within the same cell that share similar structural chrematistic
Interphase Normal cell growth and function, near the end DNA will be copied if a cell is going to divide
Kinetochore group of protein on both side of a pair of sister chromatid where microtubules will attach
Metaphase pairs of sisters chromatid and line up pairs of sister chromatid along the metaphase plate, end the chromosomes are linked up end-to-end along the cell equator
Metaphase plate area across the middle of the cell
Mitosis Process of one eukaryotic cell dividing into two cells with identical DNA
Mitotic spindle Centrosome + fiber something pulled by microtubules
oncogene mutation occurs to proto-oncogene, gene that can cause a cell to become cancerous
Prometaphase can considered as late prophase, chromosome become even more condensed and easy to see, microtubules attach to the kinetochores of each sister chromatid
Prophase nuclear envelope break into small vesicles, organelle move end cell, microtubules begin to form and push the centrosome to opposite end of cell, spindle fiber emerge from centro, sister chromosome coil tight
Proto-oncogene Normally help regulate the cell cycle,
S phase DNA synthesis (replication) occurs, every chromosome is replicated, joined as sister chromatids
Telophase Nuclear membrane forms, form two new nuclei, chromosome unwind and go back to loosen state, spindle microtubules break apart, cytokinesis begin same time
Tumor Suppressor Gene Gene that code for protein that can prevent a cell from undergoing uncontrolled division
Microtubules Protein filaments that will assist in division

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
